Three of the six hits allowed by Fincher Fin-cher were made in the third inning, and had Koerner stayed on second Instead of running Downs off third in this frame, the Seals might have won the. game.

But no smile adorned the catcher's catch-er's visage this day, for he was suspended suspend-ed Indefinitely by Manager Mitchell. A grave infraction of the training rules brought about the set-down, and just when and where it will be removed is something that Mitchell aJone can determine. de-termine. It is said that the bright lights of Broadway twinkled with such brilliancy bril-liancy that Rowdy gazed too long and that it was much after an athlete's retiring re-tiring time when finally he drifted into the hotel.

Considerable trouble has been experienced experi-enced by the Angels In transportation this year and in making the trip from Salt Lake to San Francisco they have thrown their business to a different road than the one usually favored. v The plan was talked over by Weber with the players some time ago, and they favored it. Every member of the team has ridden thousands of miles on the trains, some of them having traveled hundreds of thousands, and they would like the change. Weber believes it would be economical.
